The Skins look like Rocky in Rocky III, only without having achieved any of the things that Rocky did. Point of fact, they've lost their Eye of the Tiger. They need to hire Apollo Creed to take the whole team to some crappy gym on the coast full of young football players with the eye. Then they need to run windsprints on the beach in shorts so short they'd make Paris Hilton blush. Throw in Mrs. Gibbs screaming "You can't win" (or was that in Rocky IV?) and we've got a SB title in '07.

Beyond that, some patience wouldn't hurt. Instead of getting all dreamy-eyed over some free agent signee, lets instead put some money back into our scouting department. I'd love to see us develop some players, like Kedric Golston, instead of constantly calling someone else's trash our treasure (Archuleta). It's a little hard to build chemistry when you're constantly re-arranging the core. Settle on the core guys, surround them with young, hungry players, and draft younger, hungrier players to push them.
